1.43 Ct. Moonstone from Madagascar

Imagine holding a moment of moonlight in the palm of your hand, a rare breath of clarity that seems to come from another world, a gem that makes ordinary days feel like celebrations. This semi transparent white moonstone weighs 1.43 carats, a size that in itself is a precious find for collectors and connoisseurs who know that most moonstones of similar weight tend to be either smaller or clouded with heavy inclusions. The way this stone catches light makes time pause, a soft inner glow that moves with you as if the moon were traveling within the gem, and that sensation is amplified by its exceptional emerald cut. An emerald cut is not often chosen for moonstone, because cutting a plainer, elongated facet pattern into such a delicate material requires skill and a rare rough that allows for clean, crisp corners, so when you see a moonstone with this shape, you are looking at a work of craftsmanship and a piece of nature that met the cutter in perfect harmony.

This moonstone measures 7.60 by 5.48 by 4.80 millimeters, dimensions that make it beautifully wearable in a ring, pendant, or custom creation where presence matters as much as subtlety. Its clarity is graded very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means that to the naked eye you will be embraced by luminous purity with only the gentlest whispers of natural structure, reminders that this is a real, natural treasure formed over eons. The color intensity is near colorless, a rarity among moonstones which often present with warmer tones or with dominant blue adularescence. Here, instead, the near colorless body allows the gem to act almost like a clear window into that inner moonlight, elevating any design you choose and pairing seamlessly with both white and yellow precious metals. The polish is excellent, giving each facet a mirror finish that deepens the stone face and allows light to travel and play across its planes. There are no enhancements, the gem is untreated, a pure expression of Madagascar geology and the care of master cutters who respected the stone and coaxed elegance from its crystal structure.

What makes this moonstone truly exceptional is the combination of its size, its near colorless body, and its rare emerald cut, a combination you will search for and seldom find among comparable options. Many moonstones in the market are prized for blue sheen, or for the soft, milky glow that reads as vintage and romantic, but few present with the understated clarity and elongated, architectural beauty of an emerald cut in this weight class. To own this piece is to own a moonstone that answers to both the collector and the romantic, a gem that can be set into an heirloom ring to mark a major life milestone, or worn in a pendant that brings comfort and confidence on everyday mornings. Imagine gifting it on a quiet anniversary, watching a loved one lift the box and see light move within that small jewel, a memory sealed in a reflection and a shimmer that does not fade. Rarity like this does not merely increase value, it deepens meaning, because when a gem is scarce in both physical dimensions and in color character, it becomes a symbol that is impossible to replicate.
